No speed which was even more worrying.https://community.betfair.com/bloodstock__breeding/go/thread/view/94018/27787329/so-you-think?post_id=510034517#510034517Should be retired now...i thought that was awful effort tbh.

You would think it has to be a change in training methods.https://community.betfair.com/bloodstock__breeding/go/thread/view/94018/27787329/so-you-think?post_id=509710489#509710489I agree, Imagele.

In a year when the middle distance division isn't of the highest quality So You Think has been somewhat disappointing. He certainly hasn't lived up to his overhyped billing.

Do the rest of us?He's had a great season, but perhaps they were expecting him to be Ribot and Sea The Stars love child?https://community.betfair.com/bloodstock__breeding/go/thread/view/94018/27787329/so-you-think?post_id=509367545#509367545Did they really spend that much?I'm sure they want to stand him here.

Do you think, they would be disappointed with his performances, this season.https://community.betfair.com/bloodstock__breeding/go/thread/view/94018/27787329/so-you-think?post_id=509032975#509032975Pot M Why spend $40 million on a half share, if they plan not to stand him at Coolmore.
